An experimental black & white image set of an impromptu moment.
Hershey stood next to the windowed door so that I could watch how the light fell on her when she got a phone call. And then she got a text. Followed by a phone call another text and so on. They were all with the same person and this continued for a while.
I wasn’t really listening but from the expressions on her face there was some obvious drama going on. Curious about how the emotion in these captures would look like, I continued shooting.
Hershey, aware and curious herself, consciously positioned herself provocatively....

Recently I posted Hafees Byard’s images of an early morning stroll with ButtahFly and Hershey along a lakeside in Georgia. I was there shooting too and I thought I take a moment and share some of my captures as well.
The morning was a glorious miracle that reminded me what tend to take for granted, assuming it will be there tomorrow. I hope these images reflect how much I revel in the Grace bestowed upon us.
And I look forward to doing it again.
As an EarthSista, Hershey has made her presence felt in the Garden and ButtahFly is well on her way of doing the same. I hope you like the...

Kirei Na means beautiful in Japanese. And like the EarthSista that bears the name, it is poignant and graceful. And, to meet her, you would think she is quiet but she is not. Kirei Na is quite open once she lets you in and very warm. I discovered this long before we did the shoot for 20 Questions. But what I didn’t realize is how moved I would be by her answers…
In her responses she is intelligent, frank, provocative and nurturing. You can read all of it at PangeasGarden.com in 20 Questions with Kirei Na. And check out her intimate pictorial set with Hershey in “The Dance”.

On a Saturday at the Autumn Sweet Auburn Festival in Atlanta… ButtahFly, the Street Artist/Poet and Hershey the Dancer and I found a really cool door. And a moment. We captured it.

I am part of group of Photographers and Models who get together, every now and then, for some casual shooting. And last week we went on a lakeside stroll. I got a few great shots and I will probably post them later but right now I want to focus on the captures of Hafees Byard.
Born in South Philly, now residing in Atlanta, Hafees discovered his true passion for photography a few years ago. He says he loves to capture images of life and turn them into art.
You can see a wider variety of his works here and here. Enjoy!

They wanted an early Sunday morning workout. Just the two of them so that they would not be bothered. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to practice their dance and not be distracted by onlookers and I thought it was the perfect chance to get the two of them together for the shoot we’d talked about doing. They had never danced or shot together before and we were all a little unsure about what we would create. But, you know, that is the exploration…that is the adventure.
They stepped into the dance studio. Stretched and loosened up. Connected. And proceeded to create. Both of these beautiful...

Hershey is a young, vibrant and natural EarthSista on the move with a serious passion for dance and theater.
Her affinity for perfomance grew out of her love for fashion and glamour and she stills dreams of owning a her own fashion boutique as well as a performance studio. Look out for her daring and provocative image set featuring her on the Project online community site PangeasGarden.com. In the meantime we asked her to answer a few questions about herself.
1. How would you describe your personality/outlook on life?
I’m pretty bubbly and talkative most of the time, while also having a...
